The issue is that a majority of people have to speak up in order to make a drastic change. When Gandhi was trying to spark a movement and the British would go to farmers and tell them to grow specific crops. In order for the movement to work and Gandhi to get the British to leave everyone had to say no to the British and to face the consequences.

Although it gives people comfort as to how we were made, why we are here, etc. it also causes war. Because of religions, it is a reason why some people are unable to get along.
